- Flour the surface Roll out the ball into a small circle Put your filling in the center. Sprinkle some Oregano (optional) Now gather the ends into center and merge them and shape into a flat circle again.
- Now gather the ends into center and merge them and shape into a flat circle again.
- Heat your tawa/pan well and brush it with butter Roll out the nan comparatively think than a normal chapatti
- Remove the tawa from the flame (this is a precautionary measure so that your hands do not get hurt) Place the rolled out Nan on the tawa.
- At this stage, if you desire to top your Nan with sesame seeds, pour out desired amount of sesame seeds on Nan and pour 1 - 2 tablespoons of gravy on it. Carefully press the sesame into the nan gently and make sure that you do not damage the Nan in the process
- Now put the pan back on the flame. Turn heat to medium low at this stage. Nan will rise. With patience let this side cook fully.
- When you see that the upper surface of nan is firm and gravy is dried properly and the lower surface is cooked well turn the side.
- At this stage, you have two options. Either you transfer the Nan in your preheated oven at high heat on a grill rack so that the cooked surface faces up. Bake till its golden
- The second and easy option is to change the side and continue cooking on tawa. Although taste of both differs, but its equally good.
- When Nan is ready, brush it with butter.
